The correct configuration to prefer the local Policy-Based Routing (PBR) node and redirect traffic to the remote pod PBR node in case of catastrophic failure is option D: location-based PBR, host route advertisement, and node tracking. Location-based PBR allows for the selection of a preferred path based on the location of the traffic source or destination. Host route advertisement enables specific routing information to be propagated throughout the network, which can be used to influence traffic flow. Node tracking provides a mechanism to monitor node status and reroute traffic if a node becomes unavailable due to failure.
